Chapter 10: The tenth moment an old enemy
"Come on puppy get up." Kouga said with a chuckle as he watched his mate curl up and cling to the furs coving him. "It's time to get up." In response Inuyasha just pulled the sheets closer to himself. "Alright if you don't want to get up I'll just have to come get you." He said with a wolfish grin before he tackled his sleeping mate and pulled the sheets off him causing a whimper to escape from Inuyasha. After a moment of trying to get the furs back Inuyasha curled up against Kouga and let out a content sigh. Kouga laughed in response before pulling his mate flush against himself. "Come on it's time to get up we have stuff we need to do today."
Inuyasha opened one eye sleepily and pouted. "I'm sleepy. You kept me up almost all night again." He said stressing the last word.
Kouga smiled down at him with a wolfish grin. "How could I let you sleep when I've got such a sexy mate next to me?" Kouga asked as he pulled Inuyasha closer to himself. Inuyasha flushed bright red at the comment and almost 'eeped' when he felt just how hard Kouga already was.
"Are you always horny?" Inuyasha asked in disbelief. Kouga merely smirked at him. "No." Inuyasha said quickly when he noticed the look in Kouga's eyes. That look meant that he was horny and there was no way Inuyasha was going to get away from him.
"Are you sure?" He asked as he ghosted kisses down Inuyasha's neck and stopping at the mate mark and giving it a gentle suck. Inuyasha sighed at the touch then gasped and moaned as Kouga kept assaulting the spot. "If you're sure..." Kouga said giving the spot one final nip causing Inuyasha to gasp and let out a throaty moan before pulling back a little.
"You do not play fair." Inuyasha said around a pout as he pulled Kouga's mouth up to his.
"I know." Kouga said with a grin before capturing Inuyasha's lips in a heated kiss.
"I think you broke my ass." Inuyasha whined from where he still lay on the bed. Kouga chuckled and came over to give his puppy a kiss. "No I seriously think you broke it this time." Inuyasha pouted.
"I'll carry you around all day if you don't think you can walk." Kouga said with a smirk that caused Inuyasha to glare at him heatedly.
"Not even funny." Inuyasha growled. "What do we even need to do today that's so important?" He grumbled as he buried his face in the soft pillow.
"There have been reports of attacks near the western boarders of our land." Kouga said suddenly serious.
"That doesn't sound like something I need to go for..." Inuyasha said looking at Kouga.
"It sounds like Kagura." Kouga said and almost flinched when he saw Inuyasha's face shift between numerous emotions before stopping on a cold look. Kouga had never seen the look on the half-demon's face before and frankly he hoped he'd never see it again.
"Lets get going." Inuyasha said getting up from the bed.
"What about your broken ass?" Kouga asked trying to lighten the mood. Inuyasha looked over at him before shoving him causing Kouga to fall over onto the bed. Kouga looked up at his mate and laughed when he saw a playful light flicker in Inuyasha's eyes.
"If I were you I'd worry about your own ass." Inuyasha said before quickly dressing himself.
"What's that suppose to mean?" Kouga asked as he watched his mate leave.
"You'll see." Inuyasha called back as he left.
"I do not like the sounds of that." Kouga whispered as he got up to follow Inuyasha.
"I don't smell anything." Inuyasha said after a few hours of searching. "This damage looks like her but I don't smell her anywhere." Kouga merely nodded. Ever since they had reached the border Inuyasha had been extremely tense like at any moment he would snap.
"Inuyasha..." Kouga said softly as he put a hand on his mate's shoulder. Inuyasha looked at him curiously. When he caught the concern in Kouga's eyes he let out a sigh and nodded. Mate is worried. The dog said causing Inuyasha to nod again and squeeze Kouga's hand reassuringly.
"Well well well look who it is." Both Inuyasha and Kouga froze and looked up when they heard that familiar voice. "Looks like puppy is still alive. What a shame." The voice purred causing both demons to glare up at her. "What nothing to say to me? How disappointing." She said with a pout.
"Kagura." Inuyasha said with a growl and heard the sound echoed in his head. Kill. With that one word Inuyasha felt his demon side rise and take control which he easily relinquished. 'Make her pay for everything she's done' Inuyasha growled as he released control of his body to the demon. "Hope you're ready to meet your maker." The demon said with a growl as he bolted towards the ruby eyed wind demoness. She looked at him wide eyed in surprise but managed to avoid him.
"My my my looks like our little puppy here is angry." She said with a smirk as she saw the enraged demon twitch and glare at her. "It was actually a real shame with your friends you know. I had been looking forward to some sort of fight but they were just so easy to kill." She said with a disappointed sigh. "The little miko was actually an accident. I didn't think she'd die so easily." Inuyasha roared in anger and charged the woman again.
This pattern repeated its self a few times until Inuyasha managed to catch the woman and smirked as he held her neck in his grasp. "How does it feel to have your life in someone else's hands for a change?" He asked with a bloodthirsty expression.
"You are nothing." Kagura spat and gasped as Inuyasha squeezed tighter causing her throat to close so she couldn't get any more air.
"What was that? I couldn't hear you." Inuyasha said with a smirk as he watched the woman futilely fight for air. In a last ditch effort Kagura swung her leg up as hard as she could and smirked when she heard the cry of pain that signaled she had hit her mark. As Inuyasha crumbled to the ground Kagura took a much needed breath of air. "There is nothing you can do to me that is worse then what Naraku has done..." Kagura whispered with a glare. She pulled the feather out of her hair but was stopped short when she suddenly got thrown to the ground and pinned in place.
"Where do you think your going?" Kouga asked with a growl as he bared his teeth at her. "Inuyasha you alright?" He asked as he quickly glanced over at his mate.
"What do you think?" Inuyasha growled from where he lay in pain. Kouga almost chuckled but was cut short when Kagura moved to try to hit him as well. "I wouldn't suggest you do that." Kouga said with a growl down at the pinned woman.
"You both should be thanking me." Kagura said as she glared daggers at the two. "Naraku ordered me to torture you all but I took pity on the humans and let them die quickly."
"That is not what I saw." Kouga growled down at her.
"I said I took pity on the humans Inuyasha isn't human and he just pisses me off." She said with a smirk before she cried out in sudden pain before falling limply back to the ground.
"Fucken bitch doesn't know when to shut up." Kouga growled as he wiped his bloody hand off. "Feeling any better mate?" Kouga asked as he walked over to Inuyasha.
"I'll survive." Inuyasha grumbled as he got up.
"Don't you always?" Kouga asked as he gave Inuyasha's hand a gentle squeeze. Inuyasha shrugged in response as he felt his demon side recede and his body transform. "Ready to go home?"
"Home sounds good." Inuyasha said as he squeezed Kouga's hand back.
Well here's the next chapter.
